Payson Park Loop but I didn't extend. My legs were just trashed this morning and they had no energy or zip at all, I felt like I was in quicksand. My average pace was 9:14 with a total time of 57:30, I finshed up with some upper body weight training and some push-ups. Heres to better days ahead.

See you tomorow.

Out to Mini Gu and back. I took yesterday off hoping it would revitalize the old legs but it didn't do a damn thing! Oh well, atleast I got her done this morning. My average pace was 8:56 with a total time of 54:47, I finished up with some upper body weight training and some push-ups.

See you tomorrow.

I ran Payson Canton this morning with the guys, I felt  a lot better than last week and my pace was better and more even, I felt pretty good through the rollers too which was a good sign. I had  a problem navigating my damn watch this morning, after a few miles I stopped and then I forgot to start and then at Maple Dell I took a potty break and accidentally hit save instead of resume... So had a split run but it still added up to just over 11 miles, but I figured the average pace for the two runs was 7:44 with a total time of 1:26:21. So pretty decent and I seem to be trending in the right direction.

See you tomorrow.

I hit the wall at Mile 2 and it was a death march the rest of the way! I'm not going to try and anylize it to much and just chalk it up to a bad day. My average pace was way slower than I have ever been at 9:46  with a total time of  2:07:55, this was litterally all that I could  run this morning.

See you Monday.
